About me and my therapy practice

I’m a person centred counsellor but enjoy working with an integrative approach, but always putting your needs first. 

I enjoy working creatively with your permission, using art as part of the therapeutic process

I work at a pace suitable to you to help you work through whatever you are struggling with.

I work from home, face to face, online and also offer walk and talk sessions, I love the outdoors and have found my walk and talk sessions to be really helpful.

I am a qualified mindfulness practitioner and enjoy incorporating that into my work.

I also have vast experience with adults, children and young people who are neurodivergent. (ASD,ADHD)


come from an art and design background, often my clients enjoy working creatively to express their feelings.


Outside of working hours I love nothing more than being outside wild swimming, walking and cycling.
